What is the 4th Gen machine translation?
What makes it unprecedented?
Google Translate, DeepL, Microsoft Translator. The third generation, also known as Neural MT. It debuted 10 years ago, astonishing everyone with its exceptional quality.
Time has passed, and large language models are now dominating the world of AI. Machine translation is no exception. Cistate Solutions has successfully developed the 4th Gen machine translation powered by large language models.
The 4th Gen machine translation stands out for its unprecedented quality, flexibility, and potential. We can build a machine translation system that truly fits your business operations and content.

Technologies Surrounding Unprecedented Machine Translation
Cistate Solutions' advanced machine translation system is built on a foundation of diverse technologies. We also offer a range of technologies necessary to integrate machine translation into your business operations as a solution.
Cistate Translator
The core of machine translation. Built on a large language model and fine-tuned for exceptional translation quality, our engine represents the 4th Gen of machine translation technology. An API endpoint is available, allowing seamless integration with any business system.
Cistate TextDB
A database at the heart of machine translation training. You can build up valuable language assets such as translation memories and glossaries. Not only can we perform partial and fuzzy text matches, but we can also extract meaning-based fuzzy matches.
Cistate Translation Editor
Used in combination with Cistate Translation Proxy. You can review the original and translated content side by side for each page, and easily customize the translations to fit your company's preferences as needed. Your revised translation will be saved in the Cistate TextDB and automatically used to improve Cistate Translator's learning.
Cistate Translation Proxy
Technologies for expanding and localizing websites into English and multiple languages. Simply register the URL of the website you want to translate, and our system will automatically create a multilingual version using advanced machine translation. If you register industry terms and proper nouns in the dictionary, translations will be generated according to your entries.
Cistate TextDB Browser
A browser-based tool for viewing, searching, editing, and managing Cistate TextDB databases. With just a browser, anyone in your company can securely search your translation assets.
You can also import TMX or Excel files, allowing you to integrate your existing language assets.
Cistate Aligner
To tailor machine translation to your company's needs, it's essential to build up your translation assets, such as translation memories and glossaries.
If you have previously completed a large volume of translations but only have the data in Word, PowerPoint, or PDF files—and no translation memory—please feel free to contact us. Align source and translated texts to build your company's translation memory (training data).
These technologies can be used in any combination.
If you have any translation needs or challenges, please feel free to contact us.
How is this different from Google Translate or DeepL?
Powered by large language model technology
Google Translate provides translations that are faithful to the original text, but the results can often sound a bit unnatural. DeepL provides natural translations, but sometimes its paraphrasing is too strong and the original meaning gets lost.
Powered by a large language model, Cistate Translator overcomes these challenges to deliver translations that are both faithful to the original text and sound natural.
Terminology can be applied
While third-generation machine translation systems like Google Translate and DeepL offer glossary features, they still have significant limitations, such as negative impacts on translation quality and an inability to handle word inflections properly.
Cistate Translator can even perform "fuzzy matching" with registered terms, and when translating into English and other languages, it also handles inflected forms,furthermore, there is no negative impact on translation quality.
Learn from translation and editing results
You can't train Google Translate or DeepL yourself. *
Cistate Translator works seamlessly with the Language Asset Database for Local Governments, Cistate TextDB, allowing it to generate translations tailored to your needs by learning from not only glossaries but also translation patterns from translation memories.
* There is also a technology called Google AutoML, but similar to applying a glossary, it can have significant side effects and also poses the issue of not being able to control the translation output as intended.
Control over writing style and notation
Do you prioritize accuracy and a literal translation, or are you looking for a translation that adapts the content for marketing purposes, even if it doesn't strictly follow the original structure?
Formal or casual tone?
How should we standardize date and currency formats?
You can control the style and formatting of translations.
The "Core" and "Pipeline" of machine translation
To harness the power of machine translation in your business, you need to consider both the "core" and the "pipeline" approaches.
The "core" is the machine translation itself. You could call it the "brain" behind machine translation.
Even with a "brain," its power is useless without eyes to see, ears to hear, a mouth to speak, or hands and feet to act.
A pipeline serves as the bridge connecting the "core"—the brain of machine translation—with your business operations. For example, when launching a multilingual website, you need to consider how to connect your web server or CMS with machine translation. This is where the importance of the pipeline lies.
Cistate Solutions stands out by providing both the core of machine translation and the pipelines that seamlessly integrate it into your business operations. And we have the expertise to build pipelines tailored to your company's unique business needs.
In particular, the 4th Gen machine translation can learn from data accumulated in your business operations. We encourage you to not only focus on the performance of machine translation, but also to pay attention to the pipelines that connect your business and your people.
